Norway has seized the Russian research and cruise vessel Professor Molchanov in Svalbard following a court order sought by Ukraine’s state energy company Naftogaz, which is pursuing enforcement of a $4.22 billion arbitration award over assets Russia seized in Crimea. Moscow has demanded the vessel’s immediate release, calling the seizure an “act of piracy,” and has summoned Norway’s ambassador. The ship remains docked in the Russian settlement of Barentsburg, with no arrests reported. The case highlights growing efforts by Ukraine to seize Russian assets abroad to enforce compensation claims and adds a new point of tension between Russia and Norway in the strategically sensitive Arctic.
